Finocchio Fennel

Florence fennel forms a swollen, anise-flavored bulb that can be eaten raw, sauteed, or added to soups and pasta, while its feathery leaves garnish fish. Direct sow into rich, moist soil since transplanting can stress plants and cause premature bolting. Keep the bed evenly watered and blanch the bulb by mounding soil around its base as it swells. Grow it as a cool-season crop, timing plantings for spring or fall to avoid the summer heat that pushes it to seed. Спосіб посадки: Посів у відкритий ґрунт Відстань між рослинами: 6–12 дюймів Висота: 24–36 дюймів Дні до схожості: 7–14 Температура ґрунту для схожості: 16–24°C
